c02aee80e3Noiseclapper was (partially) tested on GNOME 49 and works seemingly perfectly fine with no other modifications necessary. |

Noiseclapper (Soundcore Life for GNOME)
Disclaimer
This is an unofficial GNOME Shell extension, designed for use with Soundcore Life Q30 headphones (although it may work with other Soundcore headphones). I am not partnered with Soundcore or Anker in any way.
Warning
Noiseclapper is currently only under basic maintenance. My own pair of Soundcore headphones broke, leaving me personally unable to do anything but GNOME version compatibility changes.
Pull requests are still very much welcome, however.

What is Noiseclapper ?
Noiseclapper is a GNOME Shell extension that allows you to control some settings in your Soundcore Life headphones. Normally, the official way of doing this would be to use the official Android application through your smartphone, and then set the Active Noise Cancellation mode and the Equalizer settings from there. Problem : the application is exclusive to Android.
So what do you do when you're using a computer ?
Well, officially, you're supposed to use the NC button or "pet" the right side of the headphones to change those settings. Again, there is a problem : you cannot choose the Active Noise Cancellation mode you want to use, and the Equalizer settings are nowhere to be seen.
Alternatively, you could use the SoundcoreDesktop application to modify those settings, but I find it unpractical to use. (OpenSCQ30 now exists as an alternative, and might be better suited for those looking for advanced configuration of their headphones.)
This extension is meant to be a solution to all these issues. On top of having all the pros of being a GNOME Shell extension (no interface to clutter your active windows, easy to access), it also provides Linux support for the control of Soundcore Life headphones, including the current Active Noise Cancellation mode and the current Equalizer preset used.
